Former Ann Arbor Principal Sues School District for Demoting Her After Husband Suffers Disabling Injury

“The law says that you can’t discriminate against an employee because of a disabled loved one, but that’s what Ann Arbor schools did to Alison Epler and her family,” said Nick Roumel, an attorney for plaintiff Alison Epler. “After her husband’s severe health crisis, Ann Arbor Public Schools was less than supportive and refused to return Ms. Epler to the position she had earned prior to her husband’s illness.”
